This is the first time I have used photoshop in a very long time. I used a photo that I took with my personal camera of Oni. The ideas weren’t really flowing and I went through a lot of trial and error before I got my final product. I masked a lot more than it looks like.  I had to mask every individual bubble. I even masked a tree to the side and a bush. I experimented with a lot of filters and tints to see all the different ways this project could turn out. My main element of design that I use is emphasis. I do that by adding an outer glow to Oni and by giving the bubble she is touching an outer glow too. And by Making Oni the center piece with the most vibrancy. I use balance and scale when giving the illusion that the bubbles are closer or farther away. This makes all of them come together as a whole. The bubbles also use pattern due to the fact that some of the bubbles are the same and are placed asymmetrically. I use contrast by making the forest monotone and giving Oni bright colors that make her pop. I also believe that I use rhythm because First you look at Oni, then you follow the bubbles up, as if they are floating up. Projects never feel finished to me but I know i spent a lot of time working on this. This was my experimental time with photoshop and there is so much more to learn.
